Sanitation (Environment Cup Project)

We are very happy to have made our expansion campaign to oth-

ers districts of Nepal where we have friends interested in our

awareness campaign to heal mother Earth by educating the next

generation to be highly sensitive to climate change issues.

Conducting classes section by section by EduVision youth team became one of the better motivating tool in at-

tracting schools into the project. Since most schools did not have powerpoint presentation capability, we had to

devise motivating classes with colored visuals. We put together color printing of necessary materials and prepared

two sets of visuals for two teams to be able to take classes in any school on any given day. The youth team also

looked professional with their own team uniform, blue youth team t-shirts.

Student motivation worked much better than teacher

motivation in many schools. Giving them extra curricu-

lar activities to show their skills, learn new ones and

work in school groups with students from other schools

has been important part of the project. Both the private

and public schools campaigned together and partici-

pated on picnic and singing activities.

EduVision Youth Meets

Action Challenge EduVision youth Jasmina Pradhan spent few months to go volunteer for VSO Nepal to get experience of another part of Nepal. After her stint there, she had a challenge to mobilize the students in our area. She visited the schools where we are running the environment classes and activities and invited them to participate in the campaign consisting of following activities:

1) Tree plantation 2) Clean up and Hand Wash-ing method 3) art competition 4) Signature Cam-paign 5) Singing and public speaking and 6) Prize distributions Signature campaign not to litter the community

EduVision participated in the campaign in local

play ground on Saturday in March, 2017.

As a part of sustainability measure, we would like to generate revenues to finance the social works. In the past, we had couple of partners to identify and solicit volunteers in Spain, Germany and USA. The benefits were multifold.

1) Helping with school projects,

2) Teaching our kids and youth,

3) Raising international awareness and,

4) Practice to speak English, or learn Spanish,

5) Spanish and German dance performances,

BUDHANILKANTHA SCHOOL HOW TO EXPAND

THE CAMPAIGN

NATIONWIDE?

Alumni from the first three batches gathering for AGM, 2016

It is the only school with top students re-

cruitment from all 77 districts of Nepal.

Forming a club to train students from all

the districts and having them do aca-

demic project to take the movement to

their areas during the annual vacation

would be a good way.

Principal and vice principal facilitate the Award success.

NATIONAL

MISSION

Taprang is a remote vil-lage in Western Nepal. A level students took their help to offer books and laptops to the school li-brary. This prompts us to expand such sentiment to

other areas of Nepal.
